Bugs, Biosecurity & Best Practice

Moving and sharing plants is one of the great joys of gardening—but it also comes with a responsibility to keep plants healthy. Join us for opportunity to look at why plant health and biosecurity matter when buying, selling, or swapping plants, and how a few simple checks and good habits can make a real difference. Ideal for plant fair sellers and visitors, the annual Plant Heritage Plant Exchange, and growers of all experience levels.

Dr Hayley Jones, Principal Entomologist a the the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) will provide a practical look at the most common entomology enquiries to the RHS Gardening Advice Service, plus highlights on how to recognise and act on the more novel threats of tobacco whitefly and flatworms.
